[Clip] Root lock out

Anyone have any ideas on this one that we've just tripped over.
After installing a clip system, we age the password of root to force it
to be changed
chage -d 0 root
However when attempting to su to root now, you are forced to change your
password, as expected.
However this fails because sysadm_su_t is not allowed access to
crack_db_t - also doesn't have access to shadow_t and a number of others
things it needs.
I was wondering therefore how to get around this.
Also - where does the transition from sysadm_su_t to sysadm_t happen?
Thanks
Julian
